Yep… this is the type of crap that I do for fun when I am not cooking:<\/p>\n

One man wanted to get in to his work, but he forgot his PIN.
\nAlthough, he remembered certain clues for his PIN.
\n(Here are the 5 clues)<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A<\/td>\n*The 1st number is 1 less than twice the 2nd number<\/td>\nA = 2B – 1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
B<\/td>\n*The 2nd number plus the 3rd number equals 10<\/td>\nB + C = 10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
C<\/td>\n*The 3rd number is not yet mentioned, but based on the clue for E…<\/td>\nC + E = 14<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
D<\/td>\n*The 4th number is 1 more than the 2nd number<\/td>\nD = B + 1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
E<\/td>\n*The 5th number plus the 3rd number equals 14<\/td>\nE + C = 14
\naka
\nE = 14 – C<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
ABCDE<\/td>\n*Adding all the numbers equals 30<\/td>\nA+B+C+D+E=30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Logic Follows
\nA = 2B – 1
\nB = 10 – C
\nC = 14 – E
\nD = B + 1
\nE = 14 – C
\n–
\nA =<\/p>\n

–
\nB = D – 1<\/p>\n

B = A + 1<\/p>\n

B = 10 – C<\/p>\n

C = 14 – E<\/p>\n

–<\/p>\n

A + B + C + D + E = 30<\/p>\n

20 – 2C – 1 + 10 – C + C + 10 – C + 1 + 14 – C = 30<\/p>\n

20 – 2C – 1 + 20 – C + 15 – C = 30<\/p>\n

39 – 2C – C + 15 – C = 30<\/p>\n

54 – 4C = 30<\/p>\n

4C = 24<\/p>\n

C = 6<\/p>\n

–
\nA + B + C + D + E = 30<\/p>\n

A + B + 6 + D + E = 30<\/p>\n

Title Math Logic Puzzle<\/p>\n

SOLVE FOR B = B = 4
\nSOLVE FOR A = A = 7
\nSOLVE FOR D = D = 5
\nSOLVE FOR E = E = 8
\n–
\nTEST<\/p>\n

7 + 4 + 6 + 5 + 8 = 30<\/p>\n

11 + 11 + 8 = 30<\/p>\n
